Who says bloggers don’t respond to their readership? Well, perhaps some bloggers don’t, but I do!
Several readers posted comments on my post First Impressions, Food Network’s Simply Delicioso with Ingrid Hoffmann.Most of these responses were of the “I Love her” or “I don’t like her” variety, but a few stuck out in my mind.
They were asking if I knew where Ingrid got the clothes she wears on her series…
To be honest, my first thought was “What do I look Like, the Food network Fashion police?” but the question kept coming, so I set out to find the answer for myself, a task that proved to be pretty easy in retrospect.
Now, I say this was pretty simple. to be honest, had I not been in advertising and marketing for the past 20 years, I might have found this a lot more difficult. First, I Googled, MSN-ed and YaHoo’d for the answer. Each of those paths ended up as I expected they would, with nothing. The next step, try for a direct answer. I jumped over to Ingrid’s official website and asked.
Mind you, it’s not because of my star power that I got an answer. I believe it is because I know how to send a polite and respectful request, and because Miss Hoffmann’s PR firm is on the ball and would like any positive exposure that they can get. For any that read here normally, you’ll know I’ve had some harsh words about Food network Celebs in the past. I didn’t try to hide this from Ingrid’s representatives. I simply told them that Miss Hoffmann herself was someone whom I actually look forward to watching, which is the absolute truth. I think Ingrid is a breath of fresh air. The network needs more of that.
As for your fashion tips…
